Dear Takeoff,
The Whole World will miss you so much, I WILL MISS YOU SO MUCH & I NEVER KNEW YOU, but my heart is broken in this senseless act taking your beauty & talent away.
They say the good die young, but they forget to remind us it feels like it rips the very air & feelings from your soul& leaves you weighted for life.
RIP Rap God, you were this beautiful prophet & lesson to the world, foreshadowing your own journey to Heaven.
Tank you for walking & Representing the Rap World & Entertainment industry like the Superstar Rocketman you are...til the next life Takeoff. I hope to meet you there.
A loving fan

I lit a candle at church for you and your whole family, and I’m praying for their healing. We never met but I feel we would have been good friends if we had. You'll be missed.

My deepest condolences to the family on the loss of your grandson, son, nephew, brother, cousin. He was special - a pure, smart, passionate, gentle soul, great sense of humor, and deep love for music and his family. I really respected that he always gave credit where credit is due and so outwardly paid homage & gratitude for the talents/strengths of those before and around him.

Rest In Peace, Takeoff. May God welcome you into his arms. xx
